Cecilie Posted July 15, 2015 I built this scene from Episode II where Anakin and Obi-Wan chase after Zam Wesell for the Imperium Der Steine MOC Olympics (imperiumdersteine.de) Pull up, Anakin! by Cecilie Fritzvold, on Flickr Alternate view by Cecilie Fritzvold, on Flickr Individual pictures of the two speeders: XJ-6 airspeeder by Cecilie Fritzvold, on Flickr Yeah, I don't own a Zam Wesell minifig, so I had to improvise on that...

mediumsnowman Posted July 15, 2015 All the detail on the speeders in great, as is the background. Impressive work. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
spotfrog Posted July 15, 2015 That's an awesome rendition of the scene! The forced perspective background really sells it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
IronFish Posted July 15, 2015 I feel like the yellow speeder is a little big for minifig scale, but other than that, it looks perfect! (I love the detail on the engines) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheWolffe Posted July 15, 2015 I love the engine detail on Anakins speeder, they look gritty and alive! But my only gripe with the speeder is it looks a lil bit to long length wise. Other then that a fantastic MOC, I love it! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rolli Posted July 15, 2015 You just totally floored me with this, Cecilie. Totally amazing and well beyond what anyone expected from the first round of this contest. Great details on the speeders and a totally rad but awesome setup. I really love the first image! Well done! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Commander Beltar Posted July 15, 2015 Great build with a great presentation! I love the shapes on the air speeders! Also, great perspectives in the shots! ~Beltar Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Azrielsc Posted July 16, 2015 The details on the Jedi speeder are really nice and the forced perspective shot does give the entire dirorama a sense of speed and danger! LOVELY! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MstrOfPppts Posted July 16, 2015 Excellent work. I'll comment here to spare Rolli (and me) some work :) You've really nailed this scene! There's so much detail and accuracy in both vessels and I particularly love the XJ-6 which is quite rarely seen in LEGO form. The engines are so cool! The base is another thing to admire and you really went an extra mile in adding that tall building for the background. When thinking about fitting this scene into 32x32 I imagined the fighters above each other and Anakin jumping down to the assassins speeder, but this version is even cooler for the posing of vessels. The absence of the real Zen fig is no big deal. This way it's even better - all you need is a female face with a bandana over the mouth. And anyway the original is still yellow ... All in all, far better then I would have imagined it! You just totally floored me with this, Cecilie.

Cecilie Posted July 16, 2015 Thank you everyone for the nice comments! I feel like the yellow speeder is a little big for minifig scale, but other than that, it looks perfect! (I love the detail on the engines) I love the engine detail on Anakins speeder, they look gritty and alive! But my only gripe with the speeder is it looks a lil bit to long length wise. Other then that a fantastic MOC, I love it! Yes, I know the yellow speeder may be a bit too long, particularly in the front, but the width is kind of given if I wanted to seat two minifigs and have this level of detail. It could maybe have been 1 stud narrower, but then I couldn't have used those sand green mudguards in the front, which I really liked the look of. I actually started by building the engines and putting them under the sand green mudguards, so the whole speeder is scaled according to that. It is also shorter than the green speeder (which I built first), so I don't think they are very off in scale with regards to each other. You just totally floored me with this, Cecilie. Totally amazing and well beyond what anyone expected from the first round of this contest. Great details on the speeders and a totally rad but awesome setup. I really love the first image! Well done! Thank you . Mission accomplished! I probably went a bit overboard, but it was worth it! And I guess no rest for me the next couple of weeks Excellent work.

The green speeder is actually pretty much exactly 32 studs long, so it would have been a tight fit if I were placing them horizontally That tall building (which is just a wall, really ) is using pretty much all my black bricks .
